Abstract
BACKGROUND Ultrasensitive detection is crucial for the early warning and intervention of risk factors, ultimately benefiting the environment and human health. Low levels of ochratoxin A (OTA) present a hidden yet significant threat, and rapid detection via high-performing biosensors is therefore essential. RESULTS A cascade isothermal amplification aptasensor (CIA-aptasensor) was designed for OTA detection. On the surface of a magnetic bead probe, the OTA level was converted into positively correlated trigger cDNA through its competitive binding with OTA-Apt. The released trigger cDNA activated catalytic hairpin assembly followed by coupling with a hybridization chain reaction to achieve CIA. After adding graphene oxide and SYBR Green I, the background interference was eliminated to specifically obtain OTA-related fluorescence. The ultrasensitive limit of detection was 0.22 pg mL-1, an improvement of 1368-fold over conventional enzyme-linked aptamer sorbent assay by the same OTA-Apt, demonstrating satisfactory reliability and practicability. Thus, the CIA-aptasensor provides an enzyme- and label-free simplified homogeneous system with minimal background interference using isothermal conditions. SIGNIFICANCE This study provides a polymerase chain reaction-like approach for enhancing the sensitivity and performance of a biosensor, which could be extended for the application of CIA and label-free signaling strategy to other risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUD The global prevalence of diabetes mellitus, a serious chronic disease with fatal consequences for millions annually, is of utmost concern. The development of efficient and simple devices for monitoring glucose levels is of utmost significance in managing diabetes. The advancement of nanotechnology has resulted in the indispensable utilization of advanced nanomaterials in high-performance glucose sensors. Modulating the morphology and intricate composition of transition metals represents a viable approach to exploit their structure/function correlation, thereby achieving optimal electrocatalytic performance of the synthesized catalysts. RESULTS Herein, a sensitive and rapid Cu-encapsulated Cu2S@nitrogen-doped carbon (Cu@Cu2S@N-C) hollow nanocubes-functionalized microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μ-PAD) was fabricated. Through a delicate sacrificial template/interface technique and thermal decomposition, inter-connected hollow networks were formed to boost the active sites, and the carbon shell was coated to protect Cu from being oxidation. For application, the constructed μ-PAD is used for glucose sensing utilizing an origami automated sample pretreatment system enabled by a simple application of strong alkaline solution on wax paper. Under optimal circumstances, the Cu@Cu2S@N-C electrochemical biosensor exhibits broad detection range of 2-7500 μM (R2 = 0.996) with low detection limit of 0.16 μM (S/N = 3) and high sensitivity of 1996 μA mM-1 cm-2. Additionally, the constructed μ-PAD also exhibited excellent selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. SIGNIFICANCE By rationally designing the double-shell hollow nanostructure and introducing Cu-encapsulated inner layer, the synthesized Cu@Cu2S@N-C hollow nanocubes show large specific surface area, short diffusion channels, and high stability. The proposed origami μ-PAD has been successfully applied to serum samples without any additional sample preparation steps for glucose determination, offering a new perspective for early nonenzymatic glucose diagnosis.

Abstract
Biosensors are currently among the most commonly used devices for analysing biomarkers and play an important role in environmental detection, food safety, and disease diagnosis. Researchers have developed multimodal biosensors instead of single-modal biosensors to meet increasing sensitivity, accuracy, and stability requirements. Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) are beneficial for preparing core probes for multimodal biosensors because of their excellent physical and chemical properties, such as easy regulation and modification, and because they can integrate diverse sensing strategies. This review mainly summarizes the excellent physicochemical properties of MNPs applied as biosensing probes and the principles of commonly used MNP-based multimodal sensing strategies. Recent applications and possible improvements of multimodal biosensors based on MNPs are also described, among which on-site inspection and sensitive detection are particularly important. The current challenges and prospects for multimodal biosensors based on MNPs may provide readers with a new perspective on this field.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensors have emerged as powerful tools for the ultrasensitive detection of lung cancer biomarkers like carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and alpha fetoprotein (AFP). This review comprehensively discusses the progress and potential of nanocomposite-based electrochemical biosensors for early lung cancer diagnosis and prognosis. By integrating nanomaterials like graphene, metal nanoparticles, and conducting polymers, these sensors have achieved clinically relevant detection limits in the fg/mL to pg/mL range. We highlight the key role of nanomaterial functionalization in enhancing sensitivity, specificity, and antifouling properties. This review also examines challenges related to reproducibility and clinical translation, emphasizing the need for standardization of fabrication protocols and robust validation studies. With the rapid growth in understanding lung cancer biomarkers and innovations in sensor design, nanocomposite electrochemical biosensors hold immense potential for point-of-care lung cancer screening and personalized therapy guidance. Realizing this goal will require strategic collaboration among material scientists, engineers, and clinicians to address technical and practical hurdles. Overall, this work provides valuable insight for developing next-generation smart diagnostic devices to combat the high mortality of lung cancer.

Abstract
Herein, an antibody-protein-aptamer electrochemical biosensor was designed by highly efficient proximity-induced DNA hybridization on a tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) for ultrasensitive detection of human insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Impressively, the IGF-1 antibody immobilized on the top vertex of the TDN could effectively capture the target protein with less steric effect, and the ferrocene-labeled signal probe (SP) bound on the bottom vertex of the TDN was close to the electrode surface for generating a strong initial signal. In the presence of target protein IGF-1 and an aptamer strand, an antibody-protein-aptamer sandwich could be formed on the top vertex of TDN, which would trigger proximity-induced DNA hybridization to release the SP on the bottom vertex of TDN; therefore, the signal response would decrease dramatically, enhancing the sensitivity of the biosensor. As a result, the linear range of the proposed biosensor for target IGF-1 was 1 fM to 1 nM with the limit of detection down to 0.47 fM, which was much lower than that of the traditional TDN designs on electrochemical biosensors. Surprisingly, the use of this approach offered an innovative approach for the sensitive detection of biomarkers and illness diagnosis.

Abstract
Herein, a flexible near-infrared (NIR) light-actuated photoelectrochemical (PEC) lab-on-paper device was constructed toward miRNA-122 detection, utilizing the combination of DNA-programmed NaYF4/Yb,Tm upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and the Z-scheme AgI/WO3 heterojunction grown in situ on gold nanoparticle-decorated 3D cellulose fibers. The UCNPs were employed as light transducers for converting NIR light into ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) light to excite the nanojunction. The multiple diffraction of NaYF4/Yb,Tm matched the absorption band of the Z-scheme AgI/WO3 heterojunction, resulting in enhanced PEC photocurrent output. This prepared Z-scheme heterojunction effectively directed charge migration and highly facilitated the electron-hole pair separation. Target miRNA-122 activated the nonenzyme catalytic hairpin assembly signal amplification strategy, generating duplexes which caused the exfoliation of NaYF4/Yb,Tm UCNPs from the biosensor electrode and lowered the photocurrent under 980 nm irradiation. Under optimized circumstances, the proposed NIR-actuated PEC lab-on-paper device presented accurate miRNA-122 detection within a wide linear range of 10 fM-100 nM with a low limit of detection of 2.32 fM, providing a reliable strategy in the exploration of NIR-actuated PEC biosensors for low-cost, high-performance bioassay in clinical applications.

Abstract
This paper developed a portable microfluidic paper-based analysis device (μ-PAD) combined with the electrochemical technique for efficient and sensitive detection of peanut allergen Ara h1. The proposed μ-PAD works based on the variation of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) response current induced by peanut allergen Ara h1. Black phosphorus (BP)-Au nanocomposites were introduced both to improve the electron transfer rate at the electrode interface for signal amplification, and to immobilize the specific Ara h1 aptamers through Au-S bonding to recognize the target in food matrices. This μ-PAD had good specificity and detection stability for Ara h1 allergen and could complete the entire analysis process within 20 min, achieving a wide linear response range (25-800 ng mL-1) and a low detection limit (LOD, 11.8 ng mL-1). In the Ara h1 allergen detection applied to real peanut products (cookies, milk, and bread), the constructed μ-PAD obtained acceptable recoveries (93.50%-101.86%) with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.36-2.97% (n = 3), with a good correlation with the ELISA results (R2 = 0.9956). Therefore, the portable μ-PAD based on BP-Au nanocomposites was demonstrated to provide an effective strategy for rapid analysis and screening of Ara h1 allergen in food, which has broad application prospects.

Abstract
In recent years, the demand for rapid, sensitive, and simple methods for diagnosing deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has grown due to the increase in the variation of infectious diseases. This work aimed to develop a flash signal amplification method coupled with electrochemical detection for polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-free tuberculosis (TB) molecular diagnosis. We exploited the slightly miscible properties of butanol and water to instantly concentrate a capture probe DNA, a single-stranded mismatch DNA, and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to a small volume to reduce the diffusion and reaction time in the solution. In addition, the electrochemical signal was enhanced once two strands of DNA were hybridized and bound to the surface of the gold nanoparticle at an ultra-high density. To eliminate non-specific adsorption and identify mismatched DNA, the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and Muts proteins were sequentially modified on the working electrode. This sensitive and specific approach can detect as low as attomolar levels of DNA targets (18 aM) and is successfully applied to detecting tuberculosis-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in synovial fluid. More importantly, as this biosensing strategy can amplify the signal in only a few seconds, it possesses a great potential for point-of-care and molecular diagnosis applications.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed a nanocomposite consisting of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-encapsulated 2D Zn-Co zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF) nanosheets strung on a ZnCoO nanowire array on a Ti support (denoted as 2D-Zn/Co-ZIF(HRP)|ZnCoO|Ti). This nanocomposite was then applied to constructing an electrochemical biosensor for detecting H2O2 derived from O2∙- released by mitochondria in living cells. This sensing platform shows excellent catalytic performance towards H2O2, attributable to the enzyme/metal-catalytic effect of HRP and Zn/Co-ZIF. The unique nano-string structure alleviates the aggregation of Zn/Co-ZIF nanosheets, readily exposes the catalytic active sites, protects the bioactivity of HRP, and reduces the charge/mass transfer pathway within Zn/Co-ZIF. The 2D-Zn/Co-ZIF(HRP)|ZnCoO|Ti biosensor offers two linear ranges of 0.2-10 μ M and 10-1100 μ M, a limit of detection of 0.082 μ M, a sensitivity of 3.3 mA mM-1 cm-2, good selectivity and stability over 40 days for H2O2 detection. After treating with specific mitochondrial complex inhibitors, the chronoamperometric results at the 2D-Zn/Co-ZIF(HRP)|ZnCoO|Ti confirmed complex I and III within the mitochondria electron transfer chain as the main electron leakage sites. This biosensor may contribute to the development of diagnostic health-care devices that shed light on the precaution and even treatment of oxidative stress diseases.

Abstract
In this paper, a photoelectrochemical (PEC)-surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) dual-mode biosensor is constructed coupled with a dual-recognition binding-induced DNA walker with a carbon nitride nanosheet (C3N4)/MXene-gold nanoparticles (C/M-Au NPs) accelerator, which is reliable and capable for sensitive and accurate detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Initially, a photoactive heterostructure is formed by combining C3N4 and MXene via a simple electrostatic self-assembly as they possess well-matched band-edge energy levels. Subsequently, in situ growth of gold nanoparticles on the formed surface results in better PEC performance and SERS activity, because of the synergistic effects of surface plasmon resonance and Schottky barrier. Furthermore, a three-dimensional, bipedal, and dual-recognition binding-induced DNA walker is introduced with the formation of Pb2+-dependent DNAzyme. In the presence of S. aureus, a significant quantity of intermediate DNA (I-DNA) is generated, which can open the hairpin structure of Methylene Blue-tagged hairpin DNA (H-MB) on the electrode surface, thereby enabling the switch of signals for the quantitative determination of S. aureus. The constructed PEC-SERS dual-mode biosensor that can be mutually verified under one reaction effectively addresses the problem of the low detection accuracy of traditional sensors. Experimental results revealed that the effective combination of PEC and SERS is achieved for amplification detection of S. aureus with a detection range of 5-108 CFU/mL (PEC) and 10-108 CFU/mL (SERS), and a detection of limit of 0.70 CFU/mL (PEC) and 1.35 CFU/mL (SERS), respectively. Therefore, this study offers a novel and effective dual-mode sensing strategy, which has important implications for bioanalysis and health monitoring.

Abstract
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) offer a unique possibility for a cost-effective portable and rapid detection of a wide range of small molecules and macromolecules and even microorganisms. In this line, electrochemical detection methods are key techniques for the qualitative analysis of different types of ligands. The electrochemical sensing μPADs have been devised for the rapid, accurate, and quantitative detection of oncomarkers through two-/three-dimensional (2D/3D) approaches. The 2D μPADs were first developed and then transformed into 3D systems via folding and/or twisting of paper. The microfluidic channels and connections were created within the layers of paper. Based on the fabrication methods, 3D μPADs can be classified into origami and stacking devices. Various fabrication methods and materials have been used to create hydrophilic channels in μPADs, among which the wax printing technique is the most common method in fabricating μPADs. In this review, we discuss the fabrication and design strategies of μPADs, elaborate on their detection modes, and highlight their applications in affinity-based electrochemical μPADs methods for the detection of oncomarkers.

Abstract
It is essential to develop ultrasensitive biosensors for cancer detection and treatment monitoring. In the development of sensing platforms, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention as potential porous crystalline nanostructures. Core-shell MOF nanoparticles (NPs) have shown different diversities, complexities, and biological functionalities, as well as significant electrochemical (EC) properties and potential bio-affinity to aptamers. As a result, the developed core-shell MOF-based aptasensors serve as highly sensitive platforms for sensing cancer biomarkers with an extremely low limit of detection (LOD). This paper aimed to provide an overview of different strategies for improving selectivity, sensitivity, and signal strength of MOF nanostructures. Then, aptamers and aptamers-modified core-shell MOFs were reviewed to address their functionalization and application in biosensing platforms. Additionally, the application of core-shell MOF-assisted EC aptasensors for detection of several tumor antigens such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA-125), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), and other tumor markers were discussed. In conclusion, the present article reviews the advancement of potential biosensing platforms toward the detection of specific cancer biomarkers through the development of core-shell MOFs-based EC aptasensors.

Room-Temperature Self-Healing Conductive Elastomers for Modular Assembly as a Microfluidic Electrochemical Biosensing Platform for the Detection of Colorectal Cancer Exosomes. MICROMACHINES 2023; 14:617.

Abstract
Modular components for rapid assembly of microfluidics must put extra effort into solving leakage and alignment problems between individual modules. Here, we demonstrate a conductive elastomer with self-healing properties and propose a modular microfluidic component configuration system that utilizes self-healing without needing external interfaces as an alternative to the traditional chip form. Specifically, dual dynamic covalent bond crosslinks (imine and borate ester bonds) established between Polyurethane (PU) and 2-Formylbenzeneboronic acid (2-FPBA) are the key to a hard room-temperature self-healing elastomeric substrate PP (PU/2-FPBA). An MG (MXene/GO) conductive network with stable layer spacing (Al-O bonds) obtained from MXene and graphene oxide (GO) by in situ reduction of metals confers photothermal conductivity to PP. One-step liquid molding obtained a standardized modular component library of puzzle shapes from PP and MGPP (MG/PP). The exosomes were used to validate the performance of the constructed microfluidic electrochemical biosensing platform. The device has a wide detection range (50-105 particles/μL) and a low limit of detection (LOD) (42 particles/μL) (S/N = 3), providing a disposable, reusable, cost-effective, and rapid analysis platform for quantitative detection of colorectal cancer exosomes. In addition, to our knowledge, this is the first exploration of self-healing conductive elastomers for a modular microfluidic electrochemical biosensing platform.

Abstract
In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical sensor was proposed for the detection of β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) activity. Firstly, the BACE1 specific peptide was modified onto the Au electrode to graft a single-strand DNA with polycytosine DNA sequence (dC12) via amide bonding between peptide and dC12. Because the dC12 is abundant in phosphate groups, thus it can react with molybdate to form redox molybdophosphate, which can generate electrochemical current. Using BACE1 as a model peptidase, the proposed sensor shows a linear response range from 1 to 15 U/mL and limit of detection down to 0.05 U/mL. The sensor displays good performance for the BACE1 activity detection in human serum samples, which may have potential applications in the clinical diagnostics of Alzheimer's disease.

Superior graphdiyne self-powered biosensing platform with highly sensitivity and reliability for dual-mode detection of MicroRNA by integrating T7 Exonuclease and 3D DNA walker induced rolling circle amplification. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1239:340696.

Abstract
A highly sensitivity self-powered biosensor is developed based on T7 exonuclease (T7 Exo) and 3D DNA walker induced rolling circle amplification (RCA) for electrochemical/colorimetric dual-mode detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21) with improved reliability. Taking its advantage of fascinating properties, such as high structure defects and good conductivity, graphdiyne is prepared and used to prepare high-performance enzyme biofuel cell. T7 Exo-assisted 3D DNA walker target recognition triggers RCA reaction to obtain a significantly amplified signal response. A capacitor is integrated to the enzyme biofuel cell to further amplify the electrochemical output signal of the self-powered biosensor. In detection system, glucose oxidase catalyzes glucose oxidation to produce hydrogen peroxide, and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) is then catalyzed to generate colored products, so as to achieve the colorimetric detection of the target. Analysis signals of diverse modes are recorded independently. Consequently, detection of microRNA with improved reliability and wider signal response range are achieved by electrochemical/colorimetric dual-mode with detection limits of 0.15 and 33 fM (S/N = 3) respectively. In addition, the proposed self-powered biosensor successfully applied for the detection of miRNA-21 in human serum samples, confirming its practical applicability in clinical diagnosis. It is powerfully anticipated the proposed self-powered biosensor possesses great potential to be applied to other biomedical domains.

PEC/Colorimetric Dual-Mode Lab-on-Paper Device via BiVO 4/FeOOH Nanocomposite In Situ Modification on Paper Fibers for Sensitive CEA Detection. BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:103.

Abstract
A dual-mode lab-on-paper device based on BiVO4/FeOOH nanocomposites as an efficient generating photoelectrochemical (PEC)/colorimetric signal reporter has been successfully constructed by integration of the lab-on-paper sensing platform and PEC/colorimetric detection technologies for sensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Concretely, the BiVO4/FeOOH nanocomposites were in situ synthesized onto the paper-working electrode (PWE) through hydrothermal synthesis of the BiVO4 layer on cellulose fibers (paper-based BiVO4) which were initially modified by Au nanoparticles for improving the conductivity of three dimensional PWE, and then the photo-electrodeposition of FeOOH onto the paper-based BiVO4 to construct the paper-based BiVO4/FeOOH for the portable dual-mode lab-on-paper device. The obtained nanocomposites with an FeOOH needle-like structure deposited on the BiVO4 layer exhibits enhanced PEC response activity due to its effective separation of the electron-hole pair which could further accelerate the PEC conversion efficiency during the sensing process. With the introduction of CEA targets onto the surface of nanocomposite-modified PWE assisted by the interaction with the CEA antibody from a specific recognition property, a signal-off PEC signal state with a remarkable photocurrent response decreasing trend can be achieved, realizing the quantitative detection of CEA with the PEC signal readout mode. By means of a smart origami paper folding, the colorimetric signal readout is achieved by catalyzing 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to generate blue oxidized TMB in the presence of H2O2 due to the satisfied enzyme-like catalytic activity of the needle-like structure, FeOOH, thereby achieving the dual-mode signal readout system for the proposed lab-on-paper device. Under the optimal conditions, the PEC and colorimetric signals measurement were effectively carried out, and the corresponding linear ranges were 0.001-200 ng·mL-1 and 0.5-100 ng·mL-1 separately, with the limit of detection of 0.0008 and 0.013 ng·mL-1 for each dual-mode. The prepared lab-on-paper device also presented a successful application in serum samples for the detection of CEA, providing a potential pathway for the sensitive detection of target biomarkers in clinical application.

Abstract
The development of highly specific biomimetic recognition material is a challenge for rapid detection of harmful residues in foodstuff. In this study, a paper-based boronate affinity metal-organic framework/molecularly imprinted polymer microfluidic chip (FZS-BA@MIP) was constructed based on the in situ construction strategy, which was also designed as a highly specific biomimetic recognition module. Here, the homogeneous zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) membrane served as a great scaffold and enrichment layer. Besides, the recognition layer of MIP was prepared based on a highly oriented boronate affinity surface imprinting strategy. With the aid of the liquid flow channel, the highly specific enrichment and visual detection for antibiotic residues like kanamycin in actual products were achieved on the paper chip module of an integrated lateral flow platform. The whole analysis process could be accomplished within 30 min. In brief, this study offered a new integrated biomimetic recognition platform for visually detecting harmful veterinary residues containing cis-diols, which demonstrated promising commercial value in point-of-care testing of foodborne hazardous compounds.

Along with microfluidics, the application of nanomaterials in biosensing has attracted lots of attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties for enhanced signal modulation such as signal amplification and signal transduction for POC bioanalysis. Hence, an enormous number of microfluidic devices integrated with nano-sensors have been developed for POC bioanalysis targeting low-resource settings. Herein, we review recent advances in POC bioanalysis on nano-sensor-based microfluidic platforms. We first briefly summarized the different types of cost-effective microfluidic platforms, followed by a concise introduction to nanomaterial-based biosensors. Then, we highlighted the application of microfluidic platforms integrated with nano-sensors for POC bioanalysis. Finally, we discussed the current limitations and perspective trends of the nano-sensor-based microfluidic platforms for POC bioanalysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The demand for point-of-care testing (POCT) devices has rapidly grown since they offer immediate test results with ease of use, makingthem suitable for home self-testing patients and caretakers. However, the POCT development has faced the challenges of increased cost and limited resources. Therefore, the paper substrate as a low-cost material has been employed to develop a cost-effective POCT device, known as "Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs)". This device is gaining attention as a promising tool for medicinal diagnostic applications owing to its unique features of simple fabrication, low cost, enabling manipulation flow (capillarydriven flow), the ability to store reagents, and accommodating multistep assay requirements. OBJECTIVE This review comprehensively examines the fabrication methods and device designs (2D/3D configuration) and their advantages and disadvantages, focusing on updated μPADs applications for motif identification. METHODS The evolution of paper-based devices, starting from the traditional devices of dipstick and lateral flow assay (LFA) with μPADs, has been described. Patterned structure fabrication of each technique has been compared among the equipment used, benefits, and drawbacks. Microfluidic device designs, including 2D and 3D configurations, have been introduced as well as their modifications. Various designs of μPADs have been integrated with many powerful detection methods such as colorimetry, electrochemistry, fluorescence, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, and SER-based sensors for medicinal diagnosis applications. CONCLUSION The μPADs potential to deal with commercialization in terms of the state-of-the-art of μPADs in medicinal diagnosis has been discussed. A great prototype, which is currently in a reallife application breakthrough, has been updated.

Abstract
In the last decade, due to the global increase in diseases, drugs for biomedical applications have increased dramatically. Therefore, there is an urgent need for analytical tools to monitor, treat, investigate, and control drug compounds in diverse matrices. The new and challenging task has been looking for simple, low-cost, rapid, and portable analytical platforms. The development of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) has garnered immense attention in many analytical applications due to the benefit of cellulose structure. It can be functionalized and serves as an ideal channel and scaffold for the transportation and immobilization of various substances. Microfluidic technology has been considered an effective tool in pharmaceutical analysis that facilitates the quantitative measurement of several parameters on cells or other biological systems. The µPADs represent unique advantages over conventional microfluidics, such as the self-pumping capability. They have low material costs, are easy to fabricate, and do not require external power sources. This review gives an overview of the current designs in this decade for µPADs and their respective application in pharmaceutical analysis. These include device designs, choice of paper material, and fabrication techniques with their advantages and drawbacks. In addition, the strategies for improving analytical performance in terms of simplicity, high sensitivity, and selectivity are highlighted, followed by the application of µPADs design for the detection of drug compounds for various purposes. Moreover, we present recent advances involving µPAD technologies in the field of pharmaceutical applications. Finally, we discussed the challenges and potential of µPADs for the transition from laboratory to commercialization.

Abstract
In this work, novel dual-mode lab-on-paper devices based on in situ grown WO3/BiVO4 heterojunctions onto cellulose fibers, as signal amplification probes, were successfully fabricated by the integration of photoelectrochemical (PEC)/colorimetric analysis technologies into a paper sensing platform for the ultrasensitive detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). Specifically, to achieve an impressive PEC performance of the lab-on-paper device, the WO3/BiVO4 heterojunction was in situ grown onto the surface of cellulose fibers assisted with Au nanoparticle (Au NP) functionalization for enhancing the conductivity of the working zone of the device. With the target concentration increased, more immune conjugates could be captured by the proposed paper photoelectrode, which could lead to a quantitative decrease in the photocurrent intensity, eventually realizing the accurate PEC signal readout. To meet the requirement of end-user application, a colorimetric signal readout system was designed for the lab-on-paper device based on the color reaction of 3,3'5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidized by WO3/BiVO4 nanoflowers in the presence of H2O2. Noticeably, it is the first time that the WO3/BiVO4 heterojunction is in situ grown onto cellulose fibers, which enhances the sensitivity in view of both their PEC activity and catalytic ability. By controlling the conversion process of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on the lab-on-paper device combined with diverse origami methods, the dual-mode PEC/colorimetric signal output for the ultrasensitive AFP detection was realized. Under optimal conditions, the proposed dual-mode lab-on-paper device could enable the sensitive PEC/colorimetric diagnosis of AFP in the linear range of 0.09-100 ng mL-1 and 5-100 ng mL-1 with the limit of detection of 0.03 and 1.47 ng mL-1, respectively.

Abstract
We present a highly efficient multichannel microfluidic electrochemical sensor integrated with an electroactive nanocarbon microelectrode for sensitive and selective detection of multiple biomarkers in different biological samples. Our results have shown that ionic liquid-assisted wet spinning followed by tailored growth of metal-organic frameworks and pyrolysis treatment led to structural and molecular engineering of mechanically robust all-carbon microfibers for excellent electrochemical activities. The flexible bottlebrush-like nanocarbon microelectrode features a "stem" of freestanding N, B-codoped graphene fiber and high-density "bristles" of Co, N-codoped carbon nanotube arrays, leading to promoted electrocatalytic mechanism that has been substantiated by density functional theory calculations. The structural characteristics, high catalytic activities, and favorable biocompatibility of the bottlebrush nanocarbon electrodes provide opportunities for multichannel, microfluidic detection of redox-active biomolecules, including hydrogen sulfide (H2S), dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA), and ascorbic acid (AA), and have been applied to on-chip monitoring of H2S and DA released from live cancer cells or neuroblastoma cells and DA, UA, and AA in trace amounts of body fluids such as sweat, finger blood, tears, saliva, and urine, which is of great significance for clinical diagnosis and prognosis in point-of-care testing.

Abstract
Paper-based analytical devices (PADs), including lateral flow assays (LFAs), dipstick assays and microfluidic PADs (μPADs), have a great impact on the healthcare realm and environmental monitoring. This is especially evident in developing countries because PADs-based point-of-care testing (POCT) enables to rapidly determine various (bio)chemical analytes in a miniaturized, cost-effective and user-friendly manner. Low sensitivity and poor specificity are the main bottlenecks associated with PADs, which limit the entry of PADs into the real-life applications. The application of nanomaterials in PADs is showing great improvement in their detection performance in terms of sensitivity, selectivity and accuracy since the nanomaterials have unique physicochemical properties. In this review, the research progress on the nanomaterial-based PADs is summarized by highlighting representative recent publications. We mainly focus on the detection principles, the sensing mechanisms of how they work and applications in disease diagnosis, environmental monitoring and food safety management. In addition, the limitations and challenges associated with the development of nanomaterial-based PADs are discussed, and further directions in this research field are proposed.

Abstract
Currently, developing versatile, easy-to-operate, and effective signal amplification strategies hold great promise in photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing. Herein, an ultrasensitive polyvinylpyrrolidone-treated In2S3/WO3 (In2S3-P/WO3)-functionalized paper-based PEC sensor was established for sensing ochratoxin A (OTA) based on a target-driven self-feedback (TDSF) mechanism enabled by a dual cycling tactic of PEC chemical-chemical (PECCC) redox and exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted complementary DNA. The In2S3-P/WO3 heterojunction structure with 3D open-structure and regulable topology was initially in situ grown on Au nanoparticle-functionalized cellulose paper, which was served as a universal signal transducer to directly record photocurrent signals without complicated electrode modification, endowing the paper chip with admirable anti-interference ability and unexceptionable photoelectric conversion efficiency. With the assistance of Exo III-assisted cycling process, a trace amount of OTA could trigger substantial signal reporter ascorbic acid (AA) generated by the enzymatic catalysis of alkaline phosphatase, which could effectively provoke the PECCC redox cycling among the tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine acid, AA, and ferrocenecarboxylic at the In2S3-P/WO3 photoelectrode, initiating TDSF signal amplification. Based on the TDSF process induced by the Exo III-assisted recycling and PECCC redox cycling strategy, the developed paper-based PEC biosensor realized ultrasensitive determination of OTA with persuasive selectivity, high stability, and excellent reproducibility. It is believed that the proposed paper-based PEC sensing platform exhibited enormous potential for the detection of other targets in bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis.

Because of advancements in biosensing systems and technology, PSA analysis methods have been substantially updated and enhanced as compared to their first instances. With the development of techniques in biosensor technology, the number of PSA biosensors that can be used in the biomedical sector is increasing year by year. Many different recognition elements and transducers have been used in the development of biosensor systems that exhibit high sensitivity, selectivity, and specificity. Here in this review, we provide a current overview of the different approaches to PSA detection.

Abstract
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was highly loaded into large holes of nanometer-scale metal-organic frameworks (i.e., PCN-333(Al)) for signal amplification in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The enzyme-labeled antibody complex prepared using nanometer-scale PCN-333(Al) maintained a high catalytic efficiency. Its Vm and Kcat values with 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)-H2O2 as substrates were 4.84 × 10-5 mM/s and 4.84 × 104 min-1, respectively. We demonstrated an HRP@PCN-333 signal amplification strategy for colorimetric assay of human prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The linear range of PSA detection by using this method was 15-165 pg/mL, and the limit of detection was 6 pg/mL (S/N = 3), indicating the potential application of this method in detecting disease markers under clinical conditions. The presented strategy exhibited the characteristics of significantly increased amount of labeled enzymes, improved stability and utilization of enzymes, simple preparation process of enzyme-labeled antibodies, and low cost.
